Hello again, and welcome to our latest issue, crafted to bring you the stories that matter most in the world of real estate.
In this edition, we pull back the curtain on the future of property technology with our cover story on Rechitta, an AI-powered platform that’s not just another bot. Co-founders Aryaman Maheshwari and Atiksh Mittal explain how their “specialist” AI is trained exclusively on Dubai’s primary real estate market, aiming to be a trusted, multilingual expert for everyone from developers to first-time buyers. They’re bringing a “surgeon’s” precision to an industry that often feels like it’s run by a “general practitioner,” and it’s a fascinating glimpse into where the market is headed.
But that’s just the beginning. This issue is packed with insights into the broader UAE property landscape. We dive deep into the sustained momentum of the country’s real estate sector in 2025, fueled by foreign investment and a resilient economy. Major projects are being launched, and Dubai continues to set global bench-marks, especially in the ultra-luxury segment, with home sales over AED 10 million seeing a remarkable 63.85% year-on-year increase in the first half of 2025.
We also turn our attention to the rising star of the Emirates: Ras Al Khaimah. We explore how this fast-growing market is being reshaped by a vision focused on urban planning, sustainability, and world-class projects. The entry of major global developers and the rapid progress of Al Marjan Island, anchored by projects like Wynn Al Marjan Island, signal a new era for RAK as a premier investment and lifestyle destination.
As you flip through these pages, you’ll find stories of innovation, from the launch of the world’s first internal curing concrete additive by Asian Paints to the appointment of a new Development Director at 25 Degrees to meet the surging demand for luxury properties. We cover the groundbreaking of new projects, like the GCC’s first-ever Sheraton-branded residences on Al Marjan Island, and celebrate the evolution of established companies like Al Huzaifa and Cencorp Group as they expand their services.
This issue is a testament to an industry that isn’t just building structures, but shaping legacies. It’s a market driven by foresight, anchored by trust, and poised for a future that’s as limitless as its ambition.
And I am extremely proud and happy to share that we have doubled our circulation at Emirates First & Business Class Lounges due to rising demand from travellers, a testimony to PROPERTY TIME’s growing stature as the most trusted and only real estate publication.
I hope you enjoy the read.
